Come on, a clean install on the new drive is the best thing you can do It`s a must.

This is an excellent cooler if you can fit it.

Hydro Seriesâ„¢ H110i GT 280mm Extreme Performance Liquid CPU Cooler

A Ti, a Kingpin, a Classified or even a plain 980, you won`t go wrong.

Ti`s aren`t even in stock yet

I know it should be a must but I don't like it, the whole process could be updated, I mean for God's sake we have been to the moon.

Well I might fit it if I use brute force...

Yeah never really understood why the 980 Hydrocopper from EVGA were in the same price range as a Titan.

That cpu cooler was an interesting fit for me too,
Worked pretty good on the front opposed to the top as I first wanted to put it,
The gtx model is a 120x240mm which would of fit a bit better on the top,

But there's also a single 120x mm which can be put almost anywhere.

Well for me I don't think it would fit, I mean on the Cooler Master website it does not list any 280 models only 240, but maybe one could mod a bit, like I did with my mining rig, I worried about the heat so I took some coat-hangers(metallic) and cut them off in smaller parts and made it look like a fence and the GPU could rest in mid-air with a PCIe-riser..

Do you think I would have a great loss if I were to run sli? I've been reading about these numbers(x8/x16) the pci slots can have and to be honest I'ven't really grasped it..

We were talking about Corsair cpu coolers which there's a bunch of them
Corsair CPU Coolers — give you the power of liquid cooling without the complexity of traditional water cooling kits in a compact, easy-to-install package

I don't know anything about sli beside it take 2-3 gpu's and 2-3 times more power to use :)

Oh, we were? I just assumed you were talking about coolers.

Yeah, that I know too, I think I do have enough juice in PSU to do sli.
